The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A leisurely first-person puzzle hunt through detailed rooms, where you methodically search for hidden objects and solve riddles to unlock the exit.

What players say

Players praise the value and number of puzzles, but many report it is too dark and includes a color-based bottle puzzle in chapter 7 that is unplayable for colorblind users and inconsistent across hardware. Movement and controls feel clunky, and time limits add little challenge.
